Something I'd add is that if one side makes testable predictions and the other constantly avoids stating "if X happens, I'm wrong", then the non-predictive side is usually not-even-wrong.

I think stucchio's heuristic is better here. It's easy to make lots of detail-oriented claims that are trivial or essentially noise. Making predictions that can be tested and falsified is the strong thing.

Maybe not related, but I mentioned details in this tweet and didn't get a reply: https://twitter.com/lukestokes/status/935030894418628608 … BitShares/bitUSD isn't theory, as it's been running successfully for years. Would be neat if you looked into it and gave it an honest, unbiased review.
